The Girls’ Day takes place once a year at the beginning of the summer term.

The professors and their working groups of the institutes and departments organize the exciting workshops. The aim is to inform girls from 5. to 10. grade about the research diversity and the formation possibilities at this university: “What do you do in this or another subject of study? Do I want to be a professor?”. The workshops of the Girls’ Day focus especially on future-oriented, natural scientific and technical professions, particularly on such with a low rate of women in leading positions.
